WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Singer-actress Barbra Streisand, who performs for Barack Obama at a Hollywood fundraiser next week, will herself be feted in the U.S. capital later this year for her contributions to American culture and the arts.
Streisand joins actor Morgan Freeman, dancer-choreographer Twyla Tharp, country music singer George Jones and rockers Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend of the Who as the 2008 recipients of the Kennedy Center Honors, organizers said on Tuesday.
honourees for the 31st annual awards will be saluted on December 7 during a gala at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, attended by President George W. Bush and first lady Laura Bush. The president will receive the honourees earlier that evening at the White House.

Maybe Townsend will smack her off the stage with his guitar ala woodstock

I can’t believe that in the last month of President Bush’s presidency he is going to have to host that liberal gas bag Streisand. She has got to be the worst of all the Hollywood twits.
